Five Reasons to Become a Mentor with Pace Learn
capacity.
Part of being a good leader is being able to help those you may not have a natural connection with. As we become more effective mentors, we raise our leadership capacity because we're relating with more people, finding new ways to apply our skills, and placing a greater emphasis on active listening. All these things help sharpen a mentor's ability to lead others.
tomorrow.
This is a rewarding experience for you as well as those you help. Strive to give back to the next generation of people in your field. It can be one of the most rewarding things you'll do in your career.
perspectives.
Mentoring allows you to step outside your comfort zone and help someone else. Being a Pace Learn mentor is an opportunity to pick up new insights while gaining a better understanding of your industry and the people in it. Being in tune with various perspectives often leads to new ideas and professional growth.
intelligence.
An essential part of mentoring is being able to show empathy, understanding, and the ability to connect with mentees. Mentoring is a great way to hone your emotional intelligence skills. Skills like this help pave the way for career advancement and improve relationships inside and outside of the business world.
value:
Mentors are often recognized as valuable resources that benefit the organization and are well-equipped to lead others. In 2015 Sun Microsystems concluded a 5-year study on over 1,000 of their employees and found that those who served as a mentor were 600% more likely to be internally promoted. Mentoring is not some feel-good fluffy thing to do. It's helping and leading others and increasing your value in the process.
